Virat Kohli and Vaibhav Suryavanshi dazzle as multiple records tumble on day 1 of Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025-26

Day 1 (December 24) of the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025-26 ran with a breakneck speed and saw numerous longstanding records take a tumble.

India's premier 50-overs domestic tournament grabbed more eyeballs than it had in the last 15-20 years as Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli made their eagerly awaited return to the Vijay Hazare Trophy.

Here are some of the prominent records that made headlines on day 1 of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025-26:

• Vaibhav Suryavanshi became the youngest at 14 years and 272 days to register a hundred in men's List A cricket. He achieved the feat while playing for Bihar against Arunachal Pradesh at the JSCA Oval Ground in Ranchi.

• Suryavanshi shattered AB de Villiers' longstanding record and recorded the fastest 150 in men's List A cricket in just 59 balls. The former South Africa captain de Villiers had achieved the feat off 64 balls against the West Indies during the 2015 World Cup.

• Sakibul Gani smashed the fastest List A hundred by an Indian, taking just 32 balls to reach the three-figure mark. He broke Anmolpreet Singh's record (35 balls). Ishan Kishan also went past Anmolpreet with a 33-ball century against Karnataka.

• Bihar's 574 against Arunachal Pradesh is the new highest innings total by a team in List A history, reducing Tamil Nadu's 506 to dust.

• Virat Kohli became the fastest to 16000 runs in men's List A cricket, going past Sachin Tendulkar. Tendulkar had scaled the milestone in 391 innings.

• Rohit Sharma's 155 against Sikkim helped him equal David Warner's record of most 150-plus scores in List A history.

• Bihar hit 38 sixes during their innings against Arunachal, the most in a List A game, bettering the record of 28 sixes held by Canada against Malaysia.

• Karnataka's successful chase of 413 against Jharkhand is the highest in the history of the Vijay Hazare Trophy. They put Andhra's 384-run chase against Goa in 2011-12 behind them.
